Question 1

Found out I have multiple uterine fibroids around 45mmx53mm in my recent ultrasound. Heard about Fibristal 5mg but it's not available is it banned? What other meds can I take to shrink them without surgery?

Accepted Answer

Kindly visit a gynecologist for evaluation and treatment plan

Question 2

I've been in a bit of a dilemma. So, I had unprotected sex with my husband on the third day of my period and decided to take the i-pill just to be safe. Now, my period is way overdue; it's been about 15 days late. I went to see a gynecologist, and she prescribed Meprate 10mg. But I'm unsure about what to do next. Should I just wait it out and see if my period comes naturally, even though it's delayed? Or should I go ahead and take the Meprate to kickstart my cycle? I'm also concerned if there might be any side effects if I start taking it. Will I end up having to rely on medication to get my period from now on? Could really use some advice here.

Accepted Answer

Misses periods is the common sideeffects of ipill. Don't take meprate as it would thicken ur internal lining which has already thickened by ipill causing further periods problem. Just wait u would eventually get ur periods as ipill has got a high success rate

Question 3

I've had my period twice in the span of 15 days. Honestly, I haven't done anything different with my diet or daily routine. I've been on some meds for about a month and a half now, though. Back in October, I was expecting my period around the 28th, but it showed up on the 18th. And now it's here again on November 3rd. The medications I'm currently taking include Indocap, Pantocid, Defcort, and Chekbak D3. Why might my period be so early, and what should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

The early period could be due to the medications you are taking. Indocap is a brand name for Indomethacin, which can sometimes affect menstrual cycles. Pantocid is a brand name for Pantoprazole, which may also have an impact on menstrual regularity. Defcort is a brand name for Deflazacort, which can sometimes cause hormonal changes leading to irregular periods. Chekbak D3 is a supplement containing Vitamin D3, which is not known to directly affect menstrual cycles. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of these medications affecting your menstrual cycle. They may suggest adjusting the dosage or switching to alternative medications if necessary.

I'm starting my 28th week of a healthy pregnancy and need to travel to my hometown. It's going to be a 3-day journey by road due to some reasons, and I can only travel this way. I'm a bit worried if this is safe for me and my baby. My husband will be driving our car. What do you think?

-Traveling during the 28th week of pregnancy is generally safe if you're comfortable and take regular breaks. Make sure to stay hydrated, avoid long periods of sitting, and stretch your legs to maintain good circulation. It's a good idea to have your doct
